Wow! So, now we have definitive proof that Pittsburgh is a serious sports town!! The Superbowl win and Stanley Cup win all in one year! I feel really sorry for our baseball team, which is the only pretty bad team in the city. Much like the Steelers' win earlier this year, there are people hooting and hollaring (very loudly) outside my apartment building for this win tonight. I live in an area of the city where there are often big crowds after wins like this... so it's always kind of interesting on nights like this. I'm very glad my car is in a parking garage.
Now, if only we could have a bull riding championship happen here! LOL. 8)

Yes, I was treated to the whole thing including the kissing the cup footage, since I live in a house of hockey fanatics...woo-hoo, friend. Enjoy the celebrations!!

Of course, I know people are loyal to their cities in sports, but broadening the perspective a bit, right now Pennsylvania has 1) the current World Series title, 2) the Superbowl title, and now, 3) the Stanley Cup. I guess the only major team title we don't have is the NBA championship.

The Three Mile Island babies would be 30 by now. I wonder if that has something to do with it??

LOL, sure enough. Way to go PA!
I wouldn't really say I'm personally very loyal to any sports team. It's kind of important to keep up a little bit with the sports news in Pittsburgh for chit-chat at cocktail parties (which can be a big part of my job sometimes) and because my boss is a huge sports fan and she often likes to chat about sports too. In fact, most sports leave me kind of cold and bored. Though, sometimes, I'll admit it can be kind of fun to watch a game here and there.
The only sport I genuinely love following is bull riding.
